Our 50k Training Plan – Compete is designed for experienced runners looking to nail their 50k – whether it’s to compete against yourself or other runners.
The plan is 6 months long and is aimed at runners aiming to continuously run their 50k and run strong, whether it’s setting a new PR or competing against other runners.
Once you go beyond marathon distance and stray into ultra territory, the training strategies and advice vary an incredible amount.
This training plan was initially developed by pulling strategies from a few sources, and has been refined by myself and several other ultra-runners.
